T13 year old builds a Tiny House for only $1500!

Meet Luke Thill, who at age twelve started working on his very own tiny house- one a mere 5' by 10', but with a sleep loft, transforming dining table, and even a small kitchenette. At age thirteen, using money from summer lawn-mowing jobs, and bartering (electrical wiring help in exchange for cleaning out a garage in one case), Iowa's Thill completed his tiny house- one that he calls the practice precursor to a future "real" tiny house he plans on designing and eventually living in.

Ok... i just read this kid started this at 12& did summer lawn work, to make money for his project.... get out!!!😥 yup!!! again i say... this kid should have nothing but likes!!!
"👏👏👏" MUCH applause & respect to ya Luke Thill!😌🖒
Guess cuz I'm a momma& i know how to appreciate a kids hard work& motivation on a project like this!!! I mean... MOST kiddos are stuck on a couch only playn video games, on t.v., or some electronic device.... I am much inspired😌💙💚

I have 5 kiddos! 4 boys 1 gal(baby) & my hubby has done construction work since this kid's age, maybe younger (started roofing&tiling) & of course ALWAYS took my boys& my daughter w him to work to learn, they start first as clean up crew, but he teaches them how to do the work & they also learn by watchn. I'm proud of the things they have learned& accomplish by being w my hubby at work. It's good for kids to learn to do things. Kids these days don't even do 1/2 the things they used to do in the old days. Just because in these days it has gotten easier, doesn't mean to teach kiddos how to work& take responsibility... i believe the percentage of kids attitudes in those days were much different in how kids are now.
I am DEFINITELY going to show this to my kiddos!😊🖒❤ I hope them seeing this can encourage them to know that they are not too young to do something awesome as this😊❤ i am shocked 2 see the amnt of dislikes on this video... i mean how many 13yr olds do you see built a 1500 house, this vid should be 0dislikes😌
I lub how he put alot of heart into this project, he even heart into the lil things😌💕 i am MUCH proud of this kid!!!😊🖒If he decides to do house building/architecture for a livin', I can't wait to see the awesome projects this kid would do🖒❤ This kid has alot of potential and🕊 i pray that everything goes well for him in the future & that he mounts to the top with his future&success when he grows up😌🖒
🎆🏆Awesome job Luke Thill🖒🏡🎆

We’ve seen wonderful lists of the most creative, bizarre and quirky houses and they’re truly a marvel to see, but today it’s all about location, location, location! We put on our hiking boots, pack our backpacks and go traveling to some of the strangest places on earth where people have built their homes.

13 - Home grown…
Before we knew too much about turning our homes into eco-friendlier versions of their selves, Icelanders were already far ahead of the game. They use the earth’s natural dirt to insulate their homes, which means once the grass starts growing, you’re blending in with the landscape beautifully. Also bear in mind that building materials are not easy to come by in more remote areas, so this is the perfect solution. By owning one of these homes, you’ll blend right in.
12 - Ready for Take Off…
This Boeing 727 Hotel in Costa Rica is located deep in the heart of the jungle. So not only are you heading into the seriously awesome location of a jungle, but you can also brag that you’ve overnighted in a disused airplane flew from South Africa to Columbia once upon a time. Many amazing conversions have taken place in old aircraft, from restaurants, to homes, hotels and even a kindergarten.
11 - Rock On…
Over in Utah you’ll find homes that have been blasted into a rock wall that form part of the Rockland Ranch Community. Around 100 people live there, and the area was founded 35-years ago.
10 - Cliff Hanger…
Although Xuan Kong Si is actually a Monastery, I’ve added it to our list today – because technically, it is home to the monks that reside there. This particular mountain is considered sacred, and the Monastery in Mid Air – which is what Xuan Kong Si translated means – has been hanging there since 491 AD. To this day, architects are in awe of how they managed to get these dwellings to hang like this off the side of the cliff. They do know how it was done, but it’s remarkable they were able to do so. They were built high up as either a defence mechanism against marauders, or to protect themselves from floods.
9 - Home is where the heart is…
This big house is located on Elliðaey Island, Vestmannaeyjar Archipelago in Iceland. An incredible view from above, but you’ll never be allowed to visit there. It was built in the 1700’s and at that time 5 families lived on the island. The house is now owned by a hunting club and you have to be a member to get there. They don’t have electricity but fortunately they do have a sauna.
8 - Oh, the places you’ll go…
Over in Northern England these treehouses served as a form of protest. The residents of the treehouses built them to prevent authorities from quarrying for gritstone in the historic Nine Ladies Sit in Stanton Lees.
7 - Time to go home…
This is the Brooklyn Clock Tower Home and it’s got a hefty price tag attached to it. It costs $15 million and offers the lucky owners a view of Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens. It’s 6,813-square-foot and at one stage was bring rented out for $50,000 a month!
6 - Welcome Home…
Built in the 1700’s, let’s take a walk around Yemen’s Dar al-Hajar palace. The more modern part on top of the hill was built in the 1930’s by Yahya Muhammad Hamiddin, an Islamic Spiritual leader. The rooms of the palace are built into the side of a tall rock spire and you can buy a ticket and walk through this 5-story rock palace.
5 - The house of the rising sun…
Although it’s uninhabited, this is just worth a share because it’s so bizarre. It’s known as the Floating Castle near Krasnosilka in Ukraine, and is actually an abandoned granary.
4 - Home is where you lay your hat…
We head to Tunisia and pop in for tea at Matmâta. Thought to date back to the Roman times, inhabitants have dug these monstrous pits into the ground and tunnelled into the sides to create their living space. Nobody really knew about this place until the mid-60’s and that was thanks to the Star Wars film, A New Hope, where Luke Skywalker made his home on the planet Tatooine. Why they are built like this is not certain, but it could possibly have been to hide from the Egyptians or some like to believe that desert monsters used to live in those underground tunnels.
3 - Head for the hills…
Admittedly, it’s not a house but a hotel, but the location is most certainly surreal! The Solvay hut is located at 13,000 feet on the Matterhorn in Zermatt, Switzerland. It offers a resting place for weary hikers!
2 - House on a hill…
In this case, it would be more of a case of house in a hill. This was the creation of SeARCH and Christian Muller Architects, and the entire home is built into a hill. The shape allows for lots of natural light to filter into the home, exquisite panoramic views and loads of shelter.

Robert and Samantha decided they want to build a tiny house. So...they got to work. And fortunately for us, they had their camera ready to go throughout the process. Sit back and enjoy while we watch this young married couple whose "combined construction experience is relatively minuscule” take their tiny house ambitions into their own hands. Thanks Robert and Samantha!

Elaine Walker, and Emily show you the tiny house (one Elaine once lived in) that resides in an RV park in Orlando, Florida- land of Mickey Mouse, The Magic Kingdom, and vacationing galore. This tiny house, a Tumbleweed Lusby, has trekked from California, to Washington D.C. and now to Florida over the past 5 or so years. Its a Tumbleweed model formerly called "The Lusby", which featured a sleep loft and a downstairs tiny bedroom. Elaine runs a website called http://www.tinyhousecommunity.com and check out https://www.facebook.com/groups/TinyHouseFL/ too!

This is a very cool 10 foot x 14 foot House, Cabin, Workout Room built this winter. Fairly straight forward design and easy to build. Best foundation to use is Railroad Ties. Bamboo floor. Cedar Decks. Pre-Painted Siding. It's simple to add a small kitchen and bathroom if you want to continue on in that direction but ours is an office and workout room because we didn't need to cook and crap out here.

Two and a half years ago Macy Miller moved into her self-designed and self-built 196 square foot tiny house in Boise, Idaho, with her partner, James, and a great dane puppy, Denver. But a lot has changed since then. . .

Over the past few years, their family has grown exponentially - and I'm not just talking about Denver gaining 140 pounds! Macy and James have welcomed daughter, Hazel, and their newborn son, Miles, into the tiny house, but not before adding on an additional living space. Originally the house had an attached covered patio, but they recently enclosed the space to create a shared bedroom for their children.
In this tour, Macy tells us about living in a tiny house with children and speaks about plans for the future. Hazel (18 months) gives us a tour of her new bedroom, which she will one day share with her brother.
At the time of filming this tour, Macy was nine months pregnant. Her son, Miles, was since born on October 1st, 2015. Today the "Mini Motives" tiny house is 232 square feet and accommodates two adults, two babies and a great dane!

Amazing Tiny House with open feel, everything transforms! Bed on DIY electric lift! Our favorite tiny house yet!

Inspired by the success of the Hawaii treehouse she built for $11,000, Kristie Wolfe began searching for land to build a “Hobbit”-inspired village. Knowing that there is land to be found for cheap in this country (she bought her Hawaii property for $8000), she began to search the Northwest for sites.
https://faircompanies.com/videos/building-your-own-hawaii-minimal-house-for-a-vacations-cost/
“There’s a lot of land everywhere, if you look on craigslist, if you look on zillow, you can find property so it’s not really that there’s not a lot. The issue is with property that’s in my price range- I’m looking for property that’s $10,000 to 20,000- usually there’s a reason why it’s cheap, it’s either an easement problem or you have to drive through a crappy neighborhood… but if you’re wanting to be off-grid, it opens up a whole world of selections, there’s a ton out there.”
Wolfe paid $18,000 for 5 acres on a hillside above Lake Chelan, Washington. Being a couple miles down a dirt road, there was no option to be on the grid so Wolfe put in a solar panel, septic and a water tank (filled by truck for now) and began to dig the first of her underground homes.
At 288 square feet, Wolfe’s “tiny house in the shire” was over the maximum square footage allowed for an un-permitted build so she went to the county for approval. With only hand-sketched plans on graph paper, she was able to get a permit.
The structure went up in a few days “with a lot of help from family and friends” and it was “wrapped and roofed” in a few weeks and then Wolfe finished the interior on her own.
Inspired by the “Hobbit” books, films and cartoon (from 1977), Wolfe wanted to recreate the cozy feel of a hobbit hole. "Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole and that meant comfort."
Rather than buying expensive custom details, Wolfe got creative. She used the top of an old cable spool - scavenged for free long before the build- as a round door. To create round windows, she hid secondhand ($10) square windows behind repurposed circular mirror frames. For a very unique cordwood floor, she cut scraps of wood (found beside the road and old firewood) into into one-inch-thick pieces glued down with a heavy construction adhesive and grouted by hand (again thanks much help to friends and family).
Wolfe has broken ground on the 2nd and 3rd hillside homes. She doesn't plan to change much of her design except to make the windows larger. The completed “village” will include an above-ground communal kitchen built to look like a thatched-roof English-style pub.

Austin Hay is still in high school, but he's building his own house. It's only 130 square feet, but it makes him a homeowner without a mortgage at just 16 years old. Right now, it's parked in his parents' backyard, but he's built it on wheels so he plans to take it to college and then wherever he goes after he graduates.
He's been sleeping in his tiny home for a few months now and he's already decided not to return to big (his parents' home is 1800 square feet). "Living small means less bills, living big means more bills," he explained from the tiny stoop of his new home. "I don't want to pay big bills".
Hay's 130-square-foot home may make him the youngest member of the growing Small House Movement.
Hay expects to spend about $12,000 building his home (the used trailer cost him $2000) and he's paying for it working two summer jobs (at a camp and at a park snack bar). He's cut his costs in half (the home's estimated DIY price is $23,000) because Hay has scavenged everything from doors, windows and flooring to the kitchen sink (the hardwood floors were $25 at a salvage yard and so was the stainless steel sink).
